The Generation Schools Network, a nonprofit that partners with schools and districts in New York and Colorado to launch new schools, has added up to 30 percent more learning time for students without increasing costs or teacher workload while simultaneously increasing the time for teachers to plan and collaborate.30 Through innovative school
schedules that include three types of teachers with dual roles, teachers have up to two hours daily to plan
lessons with their colleagues and receive coaching.31 Schools utilizing the Generation Schools
Model hire three different teaching teams for distinct teaching roles and stagger the teams throughout the day and year to increase instructional time for students.
